Dentures

Bellevue Overlake Dental

When you have lost some or all of your teeth, Dr. Yu may recommend dentures. These are designed to restore function in the mouth and are custom-made by our Bellevue dental office to ensure an optimal fit and natural appearance.

Some patients opt for denture-supported implants. We have found that many insurance providers do cover all or some of the cost of dentures, making them an affordable option for many adults with missing teeth.

How Dentures Work

Dentures are a set of artificial teeth that are custom-made to look and feel just like your natural teeth and gum tissue. Dr. Yu offers both partial and complete dentures for patients who may be missing some or all of their teeth.

Dentures sit on top of the gums so that the patient can speak and chew properly. They may be removable for easy cleaning and can improve the overall quality of life.

If you have lost teeth or do not have any teeth, talk to Dr. Yu about the benefits of dentures, or implant-supported dentures as a tooth replacement option. They will make a recommendation based on the current state of your oral health and how many teeth are missing.

Complete dentures are typically recommended when a patient needs a comprehensive tooth replacement option and other options have been exhausted.

Benefits of Dentures

Some of the top benefits of dentures include:

Dentures make it easier for the patient to speak clearly.
Dentures improve your chewing ability.
Dentures can boost self-confidence and self-esteem.
Dentures restore your natural smile.
Dentures prevent facial sagging caused by missing teeth.

Dentures can be removed for easy cleaning.
Custom-made dentures look just like the patient’s real teeth.
Dentures can last for several years with proper care and maintenance.
Removable dentures are available for some patients.

I've had a long history with dentists, having undergone several root canals, fillings, extractions, and cleanings. I stumbled upon Bellevue Overlake Dental (BOD) in an emergency situation where a crown broke and I was scheduled to travel within the week. Despite having a long standing relationship with my prior dentist, they refused to see me for a myriad of reasons, some of which I don't understand. I reached out to BOD, who didn't make it a big deal, recognized the situation I was in, and immediately agreed to see me. Within a day, I had a new temporary crown, and impression for a replacement, and the rest followed through as expected. With their responsiveness, I decided to take a further leap, and move my own relationship over to their office. I was immediately impressed by their unassuming nature, while simultaneously using the latest technology in their work (and they have done a lot in my mouth - implant, crown, fillings, shaving of teeth). The most endearing quality, is Dr. Yu's personal approach to care. She doesn't over sell or under sell - just states it like it is, and what she would do sitting in your shoes. If she can't do something, or wouldn't be pleased with the outcome - she calls it out right up front. She even offers you the ability to get a second opinion when making high judgement decisions on a course of care. I also want to note that I've also had a few procedures that were supposed to have significant discomfort during the healing process (i.e. where prescribed pain meds are required). To date, for each procedure, I've yet to take any medication beyond Tylenol (inclusive of setting the implant seat in my gum bone). I believe this speaks volumes to the methods and approach that Dr. Yu takes. I wish I had better teeth, but given where I am, BOD has been my most trusted practitioner. I have also moved my entire family's dental care to BOD, where they stepped in to each of our dental care without skipping a beat.

First time and had a great experience. Staff was courteous and the office was inviting. The room I was in had tall windows with a beautiful view of trees and greenery outside. I tend to get a little nervous at dental appointments but Dr. Yu took good care of me and kept me feeling comfortable and calm. Brandon was very informative and answered all my questions, and continued to check in with me throughout my treatment. Thank you so much for your excellent care and keeping my smile happy!

Dr. Yu, Ann and all the clinic staff are super friendly and professional! This was my third time to go their clinic. I did deep cleaning and exam, they are definitely more detail than other three dental that I went to before. I took my wisdom tooth here as well. I was so scared at the beginning, but Dr. Yu’s professional skills make me relaxed and there was no pain during the process. I didn’t have swollen and pain like lots of people did. I think it’s because of Dr Yu’s good skills. I already recommended this clinic for my friends. I also highly recommend everyone who need a dentist!
